In some ways I suppose Lenny from of Mice and Men could be thrown into the running. For something a little more classic, look at Hamlet. Hamlet's was somewhat intentional, but if you read between the lines, his actions cross the lines from sanity to a lack there of on several occasions which could be attributed to MPD. Also take a close look at Ophelia in the same play.
Good luck to you.
